Cincinnati Bearcats (official thread)

Sad commentary if the NCAA does not step in and hand down more severe penalties. This is truly a sham and what does it say to kids in high school.

It says "Give us your gangstas". The same message "one and done" sends.

The suspensions for UC players are downright laughable. What a joke. The guy that stomped on Frease's head should be gone for good and Gates should have a 10-15 game suspension or be gone for good too.

Xavier's suspensions aren't as laughable but should still be more serious.

Some comments from the Xavier HC yesterday.

Dispatch

Mack choked up yesterday when he talked about the fight.
?The ending embarrasses me,? Mack said. ?It?s really difficult to explain to my 5- and 6-year-old girls why a fight ensued at the end of the game. ? I?d like to apologize for not doing a better job.
?I should?ve called a timeout. I should?ve taken my starters off the floor. I made a mistake. I believed at the time in what I was doing. I felt like calling a timeout for our seniors to walk off the court in celebration would only antagonize the situation. I was hoping time would expire. I made the wrong decision.?

Cont'd ...

What suprised me most were the postgame interviews with the X players. The fight and cheap shots? That's just Fredo being Fredo. But I was absolutely shocked to hear the X players talking like that after the game. The coach should have briefed them on what NOT to say.

The coach should NOT have allowed them to speak at all... poor judgement on his part, disgusting attitude and language on the part of the players.
